A student titrating a sample of a powdered aspirin tablet to find out how much acetylsalicylic acid is in the sample finds that

it requires 15.5 mL of a 0.109 M sodium hydroxide solution to neutralize the acid in the sample. How many milligrams of acetylsalicylic acid did the sample contain? Use the correct number of significant figures and do not include units or your answer will be counted wrong.

Answer:

305 mg

Explanation:

The equation of the reaction is;

C9H8O4 + NaOH = C9H7O4Na + H2O

Amount of NaOH reacted = 15.5/1000 L * 0.109 M = 1.69 * 10^-3 moles

Since the reaction has a 1:1 mole ration, 1.69 * 10^-3 moles of acetylsalicylic acid reacted.

Assuming all the acetylsalicylic acid reacted, then mass of acetylsalicylic acid present = 1.69 * 10^-3 moles * 180.158 g/mol = 0.305 g or 305 mg

Out line the successive steps in the crystallization of an organic solid from a solvent and state the purpose of each operation.
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Crystallization is a separation technique used to obtain pure crystals of a substance from an impure mixture of solid substances.

The impure solid is dissolved in an appropriate hot solvent. This hot solvent is able to effectively dissolve the solid. However, as the solution is allowed to cool, the pure solid separates out of the solution as crystals.

The solid is now filtered to obtain the pure solid. The solid is also washed and dried to remove any solvent contaminant.

1. If a gas exerts a pressure of 2.00 atm when 20. puffs of particles are present, how many puffs are necessary to increase the
Juliette [100K]

Si un gaz exerce une pression de 2,00 atm lorsque 20 bouffées de particules sont présentes alors pour 4,50 atm il faut 45 bouffées car 20 bouffées = 2,00 atm donc 2*20=40 +0,5 =4,50

How does the ribosome know the sequence of amino acids
Andreyy89

Answer:

The ribosome contains three grooves which are sites for the tRNA. The first codon is AUG, which is called a "start codon". ... So, the tRNA that has the anti-codon sequence of UAC carrying the amino acid Met bonds to the mRNA codon. Another tRNA bonds to the next codon in the next groove with the next amino acid
